TV Series - What Are You Watching?

My issue with Russian Doll was that I felt no empathy towards the main character. She was a horrible, vacuous woman. But *SLIGHT SPOILER HERE* when they introduced the man, he was likeable and it instantly made the series improve for me because I actually cared for them from that point on.
 
The whole series was up on iPlayer so me and the missus watched the first four episodes. We only watched series 1 a couple of months ago on Netflix so it was fresh in our minds still. I actually think the second series is even funnier at times. Really good comedy. (y)

Watched ep 1 & 2 last night.
Brilliant 😂

Yeah, we only wanted to watch the first couple, but the missus wouldn't let me turn it off so we ended up doing 4 eps, lol. I'm really hoping that new female character gets her comeuppance at the end, but she seems to have the upper hand thus far. There were some real tear-jerker moments as well when they give you insights into Fitzpatrick's life... :cry: Actually feeling sorry for him.
 
Just watched After Life from start to finish - no doubt, Gervais is the best British TV writer ever. No one can capture human emotion like he can. No one.
 
Just finished true detective series 3

I thought that series one was one of the best things I’ve ever seen on television.

Series two was largely stagnant and even though I consider myself a man with an ability to understand complex situations... I was totally lost after 6 episodes and a few glasses of Whisky.

By that point I never really gave a monkeysabouf any of the characters so I chinned it off.

Series 3 however.

Ooooofffff

It’s a cracker. I’m not overly familiar with Mahershala Ali’s Back catlougue

But he’s absolutely brilliant in this.

As good a performance as matthew mcconaughey’s In the first one.
 
Finished After Life last night. It's an absolute joy. Gervais at his very best. Fantastic cast (anything with David Earl in is a winner for me), beautifully written story, brilliantly funny, it's just perfect. I loved it.
 
Formula 1 - Drive to Survive (Netflix). If you're into your motor sport then you'll enjoy this! Watched first 5 back-to-back last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Some fantastic racing shots that you don't really see on TV coverage and also offers a great insight into the what goes on behind the scenes - lots of driver talk you'll definitely not hear on air, during a race, too! All in glorious 4k HDR and Atmos. You'll also see what a c0ck Christian Horner is!

Looks like me and Mrs P are going to watch After Life soon. This will be a challenge for me as find RG so irritating and smug. Still, I will give it a fair crack.
